A barometer is a scientific instrument that is used to measure air pressure in a certain environment. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather. Many measurements of air pressure are used within surface weather analysis to help find surface troughs, pressure systems and frontal boundaries.
Some forecasts project the home security market as a whole will be worth $47 billion by 2020, [12] with the DIY home security market worth $1.5 billion. [13] While the market for home security is expanding, especially with cable TV and Internet service providers introducing their own security and home automation products, it is a fragmented ...
1874 — Herbert McLeod invents the McLeod gauge. 1885 — Calender-Van Duesen invented the platinum resistance temperature device. 1887 — Richard Assmann invents the psychrometer (Wet and Dry Bulb Thermometers) 1892 — Henri-Louis Le Châtelier builds the first optical pyrometer.
Children. Norma and Albert Jr. Marie Van Brittan Brown (October 30, 1922 – February 2, 1999) was an American nurse, her husband Albert L. Brown, an electronics technician. In 1966 they invented an audio-visual home security system [1][2] That same year they applied for a patent for their security system. It was granted three years later in 1969.
Evangelista Torricelli (/ ˌtɒriˈtʃɛli / TORR-ee-CHEL-ee; [1][2] Italian: [evandʒeˈlista torriˈtʃɛlli] ⓘ; 15 October 1608 – 25 October 1647) was an Italian physicist and mathematician, and a student of Galileo. He is best known for his invention of the barometer, but is also known for his advances in optics and work on the method ...
A barograph is a barometer that records the barometric pressure over time in graphical form. This instrument is also used to make a continuous recording of atmospheric pressure. The pressure-sensitive element, a partially evacuated metal cylinder, is linked to a pen arm in such a way that the vertical displacement of the pen is proportional to ...
Lucien Vidie. Lucien Vidi (1805, Nantes – April 1866, Nantes) was a French physicist. In 1844 he invented the barograph, that is, a device to monitor pressure, a recording aneroid barometer. [1]
